PRICE THREE CENTS. A BANK CASHIER MISSING. ANOTHER oHΓo BANK ROBBED BY ITS TRUSTED OFFICAL. Locking the Vault and Leaving the Bank in Charge of the Clerks-He Alone Possessed of the Secret of the Combination Lock. CLEVELAND, Nov. 3.-Ohio bank cashiers have a weakness for speculating with other people's money. Fitch. the defaulting cashier of the Warren Bank, is now locked up in the Cleveland jail, and two other cashiers who are defaulters are still at large. Another name, that of P. W. Parkhurst of Clyde, is-now added to the list. Clyde is a small town about seventeon miles from Sandusky. It is the home of many wealthy people. Among these are Albert Richards and D. Harkness, who are the principal stockholders in the Clyde Savings Bank. and carry on a general banking business. P. W. Parkhurst was also a stockholder. but in a small way. Some years ago he was appointed cashier of the institution, and was looked upon as the head of the concern. He acted as President. Vice-President, director. and cashier to a certain extent. He is a man of middle age, is a member of the Methodist Church. and teaches a class of boys in the Sunday school. Two years ago he was elected township and village Treasurer. He was also made Treasurer of the village School Board. He handled all the Stownship and village funds. He was vory generally respected until last night, when it was noised abroad that he was suspected of being a defaulter. On Wednesday Cashier Parkhurst left the bank at about P. M. He took several hundred dollars from the desk. and ordered it charged to his account. Ho locked up the vault, and left the business in charge of two clorks. He then went to his home, and was seen soon afterward to board the evening train for Sandusky with a small satchel in his hand and an overcoat on his arm. On Thursday morning the bank clerks awaited the coming of the cashier before beginning business for the day. They are still waiting. The cashier, who nlone has the secret of the combination lock of the vault. is missing. The bank accepted deposits from customers, but declined to pay out any money. making the statement to all applicants that the cashier was outof the city, and the vault could not be opened. Yesterday morning the bank was closed and a notice of suspension posted on the door. Messrs. Richards and Harkness. the leading stockholders, met and consulted. They concluded to be easy with the missing cashier. To-day they sent out the report that there was no defalcacation. The opinion prevails that the trouble was caused by injudícious management on the part of the cashier. it being pretty well known that he was holding a large amount of paper of parties not considered by good judges to be altogother sound. The amount on deposit will probably not fall short of $75,000. of which amount only n small proportion is believed to be actually in the bank vault. Richards and Harkness have Ideclared (their intention of making good the full amount of the bank's loss. The vault has not yet been opened. and therefore the real condition of affairs cannot be stated. David Heffner. a well-known citizen. has been appointed as receiver of the bank. It is asserted on good authority that the accounts of Parkhurst relative to the finances of the township. village. and School Board are in such a mixed condition that an investigation will be a matter of necessity. The bank's failure has completely demoralized the business of the town. E. Southland. a leading hardware merchant. said last night that the failure was a severe blow to him. He soon afterward closed his store and made an assignment to George P. Huntley, a business acquaintance. He is unable to make public his assets and liabilities. They will not be over $25,000. It is rumored that several other business houses will be compelled to close their doors.
